One of the largest internet search companies recently expanded its product line, creating a new web browser for threatening several existing software packages that have dominated the market for years.

A. creating a new web browser for threatening
B. creating a new web browser that threatens
C. which would create a new web browser that threatens
D. which created a new web browser for threatening
E.  which created a new web browser that threatens

这道题答案是B,但是我有一个问题,如果A改成 creating a new web browser to threaten 是否可以消除A的模糊含义?
标准答案解释如下:
The second half of A and B varies between the prepositional phrase "for threatening..." and the relative clause "that threatens". In this case, the participial phrase can be eliminated for ambiguous meaning (It could be that the purpose of the web browser is 'for threatening', or that the purpose of the creating is 'for threatening').
